Using IM with application

[Vai0l0]

Is it possible to use the IM feature with a client application
something like gtalk, yahoo msn messenger?

Yup, it works fine, but you have to use an XMPP compliant client such as:

- iChat (mac)
- Adium (mac)
- Trilian Pro
- Pidgin
- Miranda

do you know of any client that integrate with outlook functionality that add the status of a user when you over on the message sender?

I'd like to find an IM application I can distribute trough Active directory so that internal users can see each other status

Any suggestions?

On an exchange server the same functionality is done trough messenger connected on the local exchange server

Why not use Pidgin ?

I'm testing it, but unfortunately relays on gtk, aspell etc and would be a pain in the ass to deploy an maintain on all pcs

We use this at work Pandion - An easy to use XMPP and Jabber client. Looks like a single binary so no GTK/ASPELL woes

how do you make to work Pandion client with zimbra??

I filled:
Mail: mail@domain.com
Password: *******
And in connection settings:
Address: mail.serverdomain.com
Port: 5222
required SSL encryption selected
Login Authentication
Address and Password
No Proxy Server.

I'm trying with a with different configuration but never connects. I make it work with pigdin and spark but no lauck with Pandion.

Thanks anyway
